Will The Real Democrats Please Stand Up?
What is going on here?
Sen. Chris Dodd won't unequivocally commit to supporting his party's candidate on election day in November.
State Party Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo won't unequivocally commit to supporting her party's candidate on election day in November, and dubiously claims to speak for the entire state party in endorsing Lieberman.
Both of the above individuals, as well as the DSCC, are actively supporting a candidate who won't unequivocally commit to being a Democrat for the rest of the year.
What is any Democrat - much less the state and national leadership - doing supporting a candidate who by his own admission may may take the money and run to the other side of the aisle before November?
Contact Dodd, DiNardo, and the DSCC. Tell them you won't support them if they continue to support a candidate who might cut and run from the party:
Sen. Christopher Dodd
Washington Office: (202) 224-2823

Chris Dodd will supposedly be on Colin McEnroe's show on WTIC radio today, sometime between 3 and 6. You can call in at (800) 966-9842.
Update: DNC chair Howard Dean states flat-out that he will support the Democratic nominee in November. Amazingly, the DNC chair will actually stand up for the Democratic party. Will Dodd, DiNardo, and the DSCC follow suit?
